Yeung's Chinese Takeaway in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

I should start by saying the food was good and portion size generous. But the service lets it down - I ordered in person and the server stopped me talking twice to answer the phone. I get that they don’t want to miss phone orders but when you’re speaking to someone face to face then interrupting that is just rude. This then meant that 2 orders went ahead of ours. We were told 20 minutes and 45 minutes later I’m still waiting which was incredibly frustrating.

Lady on the front desk was really lovely and a credit to the company. Food was overall quite good. Chips were nice, Chicken Balls were amazing as was the rice and curry. Beef in the curry was fatty and I couldn’t eat it after a few mouthfuls. Overall quite nice, I would go back again but not order the Beef.

We ordered a meal from Yeungs Chinese Takeaway at 8pm on 24th April. We collected the order 20 minutes later. The food was cooked to perfection. It’s hard to find a Chinese Takeaway on the same level as the one we regularly visit at home, but this was equally as good. Would highly recommend.

Stayed in st.ives over the new year period, I can highly recommend this Chinese take away, dishes are full of flavour, staff are super friendly! So yummy

We were recommended to Yeung’s by a local and walked in for a Friday night takeaway. They were clearly busy with people collecting online and phone orders but service was excellent and it took about 10 minutes for our order to arrive. It was still piping hot after a 5 minute walk home and we were wowed by the spare ribs, which were plentiful and meaty! The squid and the shrimp chow mein were excellent as well. We come to St. Ives regularly and will be back for another takeaway soon.

Our last trip to Yeungs I’m afraid. Over the last year this takeaway has really deteriorated. Tough meat, dry meat, chewy squid vegetables that taste old. We have kept going because it used to be so good but enough.

We ordered Chinese take out in the shop and collected it 25 minutes later. The lady was friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and nice and hot when we got it back. The prawn toast and spring rolls were good and the prawn and broccoli was delicious.

I popped in at 6.30pm on Saturday 26th September 2020, a asian lady on the desk took my order but whilst ordering kept ignoring me and answering the phone without any manners, when she took my full order she said 20-25 minutes wait, I then asked if I could pay by card and she snapped cash only in a nasty way. I gave her the notes and she threw my change back at me. I waited and waited as people were coming in and getting their take aways that they had ordered over the phone, the place was very small and was packed with no social distancing, infact it was a danger. I asked again at 7.05pm and was told abuptly to sit down, at 7.30pm a young lady with a child returned for her order and said to me, you was here a hour ago wasnt you, to which I replied yes, at 7.40pm she called out my number 47 and i left the shop. I got back to the caravan and the food was cold. The spare ribs were like rubber, the duck had more fat on it than my ex missus, the special fried rice was dried and burnt and the pancake rolls had no meat in them and was that soggy we both threw them in the bin after 1 bite. If I could give this place NO stars I would, I will be taking this matter further with public health and the local council department.

Just had probably the worst Chinese I’ve ever had. Don’t use if you can help it! Crispy duck was soggy, tofu was dry and salty, beef tasted of rubber, ribs were ok just. Won’t be back I’m afraid

Stayed in St ives for a couple days and ended up here on two late nights. Really loved the tofu in particular. Generous sizes, affordable prices and friendly service.

Food was just ok, however I have never encountered such awful customer service: the lady at the counter was so rude that I shall not be visiting Yeung's again!

Arrived to pick up food at time specified, absolute bedlam with multiple people queuing up and only one person serving. Had to wait a further 20 minutes due to walk-in orders, no effort to prioritise existing orders, the one staff member just repeatedly kept taking phone orders.When I finally got up to the till I was informed they do not take cards...seriously? In this day and age?Food was total garbage. Satay chicken screwers clearly had been incorrectly covered with the Peking rib sauce instead of the satay sauce, the dumplings were actually wontons and they had all exploded as they were overcooked, and the beef in the curry was just the usual boiled to within an inch of its life crap.The current climate is no excuse for this! If you can't cope or put appropriate measures in place then just don't bother!

Ordered a takeaway for our last night in St Ives. We were told it would be ready for 18:45, turned up on time but had to wait a further 20 minutes. Got back to our apartment only to find there were missing items, despite everything being read out to us when it was collected. Ordered prawn crackers (missing), prawn toast, bbq ribs, beef with cashew nuts, char siu kung po (off menu) and special fried rice. Starters were perfectly fine. Mains were a bit bland and tasteless, but inoffensive. Not sure if I would order from them again - maybe we just made bad choices.

Good food, loads of choice on the menu. We phoned our order in and it was ready when they said it would be.

Had food from here a few times over the years and I've never been disappointed,very good service and the foods lovely.

Hong Kong Kitchen take away Always.use this takeaway whenever I am in St Ives you can see who cooks it Always. clean and fresh well prepared and cooked food

My family & I ordered in good faith a takeaway selection of dishes for our Saturday night meal. I was the only person to eat the Chicken & Sweetcorn soup and also the Beef in Blackbean sauce - all of the other dishes were shared.During the early hours of Sunday morning I was violently sick & continued to vomit all night long. I would not take the chance of eating here again.

We spent £40 here on a birthday treat (the children had been looking forward to this all week) and the meal was ruined by 1. being cold and 2. tiny portions. We live locally and are regular customers to this establishment. Furthermore we are used to much more generous portions and feel we've fallen foul to the old 'in-season-reduced-portion' trick. The trays the food came in were half the depth of the trays we normally receive, the prawn crackers were stale, the chicken balls were 2/3 the usual size and the chicken chow mein consisted almost entirely of noodles with very little meat! This isn't the first time we've been duped 'in season' by local traders, but come on guys- holiday makers or locals- we all know when we've been short changed and the cost of this food is not cheap- so stop ripping us all off during holiday season! I feel very annoyed indeed. My advice is to go somewhere else that hasn't become complacent due to the number of years they've been trading- there are plenty of alternative Chinese and Asian takeaways within commutable distance from this place. I'll not be returning either in season or out of season......

It took quite a long time to actually order the meal. The person on the other end claimed I could not be heard but I discarded the mobile and used a land line. After 15 minutes I was not confident my address had been understood. The food then took a further 45 to arrive. This was a Tuesday evening at 5pm.The food was very nice but the service could have been less frustrating.

Really enjoyable food. Very busy - good indicator of nice food. Family run business. Everything tastes fresh and full of flavour. Would recommend to all!

We always have a takeaway from here when stopping for a week in st ives. Always nice but they get very busy so probably best to place phone order for collection or go in and order and come back. I don't think they deliver. They are a bit pricey but we are in St Ives.

We used to use this place a lot and always recommended it to family, friends and guests but no more. Decided to go in tonight. It was dreadful. The prawn crackers were soggy, the black bean sauce was as spicy as a madras, and the vegetables pancake roll was in the bin after the second bite! The person serving didn’t speak English and the one who took our order looked like she really hated her job, miserable as *£&#!Definitely won’t be going back there which is a shame as we have a lot of family, friends and customers of our holiday let we won’t be recommending them to.

The food is completely over priced bulked out with rice and Re heated. Absolutely disgusting. We had spent £40 between 4 of us on various dishes chow mien, special fried rice, seaweed, sweet and sour chicken. It was all tasteless and the meat was sparse

Really enjoyed the set meal for one. Good value and despite being busy was made relatively quickly. recommended by the locals

We had a takeaway from here on our first night in St Ives as just wanted an easy meal. Everything was nice, but the Crispy Duck was shockingly dry, like duck jerky! Completely inedible! Very disappointed!

Visited here on the request of my youngest son who had recently recovered from a tummy bug a few days earlier and was not eating well at all after. His choice of food so we hoped it would help kick-start him again - which it duly did! The food was good and we all enjoyed the meal. We had meal C for 3 people which easily fed the 4 of us. The bang bang chicken starter was interesting but nice - a cold chicken dish which I would describe as chicken in a spicy prawn cocktail sauce on lettuce - I know that probably doesn’t sound great but it was nice I promise! The rest of the meal was lovely and they happily exchanged one of the dishes for an alternative.

We have always eaten at the other chinese take away but after reading reviews of this place we decided to give it a go. Phoned our order through, was given a time to collect (15 min) and it was ready when I attended. There were a few locals collecting food also which is normally a good sign. As food is packed in thick foil boxes it was still piping hot when I got in 10 mins later. The food was absolutely brilliant and very tasty. 3x starters, 4x main dishes, 4x sides and an extra sauce for under £40...with a large bag of prawn crackers thrown in for free.

Lovely Chinese. We shared chicken chow mien (3 between four people) and was very impressed. We would definitely recommend eating here! Wouldn’t recommend prawn crackers however as these were very dry.

Good food and choices and were on time as requested for the order. Great idea leaving menus outside so you can ring the order from the pub and pick up on the way home.

Had my reservations when we arrived at Yeungs takeaway last night. The young lady on front of house was very busy catching up with her social media and didn’t notice us for several minutes. Judging by her reaction, she was rather frustrated that we had interrupted her and after taking our order swiftly got back to her phone. However the folks in the kitchen did a great job as the food was super. Thank you.

Had a lovely takeaway from here. Sweet and sour chicken Hong Kong style with rice and crispy seaweed. For a takeaway words cannot describe the seaweed. A large meal for one but I managed every bit over an hour 😂

Serve great Chinese food. We've been in St Ives lots of times and the quality of the food here is always fabulous

Can't fault the chicken curries. Always get a takeaway from here and always nice. Just pick your time as they can get busy.

Quite possibly the worst Chinese I’ve had in a long time. £6.20 for a dry, chicken curry with literally no flavour, no sauce and as close to god awful as it gets. Have eaten here many times before and the food has always been acceptable but this one was shocking! There must have been half an onion it and even that didn’t save the flavour. Next time I’ll buy a 99p savers microwave one! Avoid like the plague if you like a curry with some flavour or indeed any sauce with it! An insult to the traditional Chinese curry (and I’ve taken out the onions as they were so overpowering!)

On a 5 night stay in St Ives, we fancied a Chinese takeaway and saw the good reviews for yeungs.we weren't disappointed.the food was freshly cooked to order.i had king prawn chow me in which was crisp (not greasy)with loads of prawns.my partners chicken fried rice was also delicious and the veggi spring rolls were light crisp and packed with yummy vegetables.really good value too.would definitely recommend.

Used this take away whilst on a self catering week. Great selection of food reasonably priced very tasty as well and nice and hot when we got it back

Having had plenty of pub food over the week and a big day out I decided chinese.

We had a night in whilst in St Ives and as Yeung’s was close to where we were staying, we gave it a go. The food was really good and not to greasy. The mini spring rolls were served with a nice dip and the whole meal was great value for money. Asked and paid for chopsticks which we didn’t receive.

Had Chinese twice in a week from here. Both were spot on. Good quality take away. The crispy aromatic duck 🦆 was great quality. Definitely be having another upon my next visit to st ives.

Where we live we have one good Chinese takeaway and many not so good ones. So when choosing one whilst in St Ives on holiday we are pleased we chose here. Although the food prep was slow as it was very busy on this Wednesday night the food was great. We had sweet and sour chicken, chow mien, chicken curry, two different rice dishes, spring roles. The food was great tasting, good quality and cooked very well. I shall be making this a holiday treat each time I'm down.
